The communal paradise envisioned here seems perfect... until you add people.
To summarise: it is a well known fact that those people who most want to live that way are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarise the summary: anyone who is able of getting such a room should on no account be allowed to do so. To summarise the summary of the summary: people are a problem.
Arthur: Bloody peasant!
Man: Oh, what a giveaway! Did you hear that, did you hear that, eh? That's what I'm all about! Did you see him repressing me? You saw it, didn't you?
While I agree on the whole "hero fantasy" aspect for single-player games, for PvP the only thing aim assist gives to the gamepad players is a false sense of skills. There's a reason why most games won't allow console players vs PC/Mac players.
We're talking about aim assist for a gamepad vs mouse and keyboard and you bring real guns into the discussion? What for? We're talking about videogames here. I might as well call you an weakling for using a firearm instead of a nuclear nuke, that would make as much sense.
And because the stupid console games have "aim assist" because gamepads suck for first-person shooters, they keep thinking they're great players and that the mouse+keyboard combo suck.
And when it slows down the whole thing or introduces bugs, they complain that you are not doing your job properly. And the money they save by using 3rd party libraries sure ain't going into your paycheck either.
Define "a large number of people", because on the whole of the population, even if a few thousand people give bad information, you still get a pretty good picture of the whole. Unlike Harper's method of "everybody is either rich or too poor to be bothered with".

Ils devraient renommer ça "La Courvieille". Then again pretty much everything in France is old, so my point is moot.
